urban knitting: the world's most inoffensive graffiti

deputy-dog.com — there's a new form of graffiti in town, and it's extremely pleasant. so pleasant that i can't imagine even the harshest critics of regular graffiti getting wound up. i mean, who in their right mind would come face to face with a sweater-wearing tree and do anything but smile?

  • Coffeedemon, on 11/04/2008, -0/+11the prefix IN placed in front of a word is often used to signify an opposing state. IE: inoffensive = not offensive. Just beware of objects marked inflammable (someone cocked that one up).
  • inactive, on 11/04/2008, -1/+9YAY KNITTING :)

  • DubiousDrewski, on 11/05/2008, -0/+2It's not like they covered up an essential sign, like a stop sign or a dead-end sign. Calm the hell down.
  • inactive, on 11/04/2008, -1/+3They really ought to be sent to jail.
  • siandt, on 11/04/2008, -1/+3Ah, I'm inspired. Central Park trees, watch out.

  • zdiggler, on 11/04/2008, -0/+2Its very offensive to the tree! If I were a tree I wouldn't ware that crap!
  • E9437, on 11/05/2008, -0/+1i drive up in a big colorful bus when im about to go tagging to.
  • MetalCharms, on 11/04/2008, -1/+2My friend does that in my city. She made a light post into a tree.
  • vtbarrera, on 02/03/2009, -1/+2Damn, I wonder how much time all those projects took.
  • kikibud, on 11/05/2008, -0/+1thats precisely what i was going to say!
  • thecitysleepz, on 11/04/2008, -0/+1No, I cannot knit.
  • irishmcsg2, on 11/05/2008, -0/+1I like it all except for the street signs. The signs are designed to be reflective so that they're easily readable in the dark with headlights shining on them, and covering them with yarn isn't helpful at all.

    The rest of it looks cool though :)
  • getter1, on 11/04/2008, -1/+2looks like something from Dr. Seuss

  • DigTheDoug, on 11/05/2008, -0/+1Edgy AND domesticated, my kind of women.
  • kneedeep, on 11/04/2008, -2/+3Really surreal stuff. I wonder how well crochet would work...only one way to find out.
  • inactive, on 11/05/2008, -0/+1Massive waste of cotton
